■ Protecting the smart wayCerberus PRO protects people and assets right from the start. Thanks to auto-con-fi guration even during the construction phase. How does it work? The control panels automatically confi gure and import data from all connected detectors and periph eral devices. They also automati-cally assign them to zones.

In addition, all control panels have an integrated degrade mode. This means that even in case of processor failure, the detector communicates an alarm to the panel, setting off all connected sounders including loop sounders. It also activates the remote transmission to the fi re bri-gade and sets the I/O to the predefi ned status.

Control panels and fi re terminals also offer a standby functionality. In case the connection to the management station or to another station should fail, they take over display and operation functionality.

Thanks to the integrated short circuit isolator in every fi re detector, sounder, I/O, other peripheral devices, and even in fl oor repeater terminals, open or short circuits can be easily located. So you see, Cerberus PRO offers smart safety features for very high safety.

■ Realizing solutions simply and quickly

Cerberus PRO provides a competitive range of control panels. They all offer unique features aimed at putting a system into operation quickly and safely from one access point. If parameter sets of detectors in certain rooms or areas have to be adjusted, this can be easily done manually at the control panel thanks to smart assignments. The neat plug-and-play system allows on-time hand-over.

■ Creating very large and complex networks

With Cerberus PRO, you can protect very large and complex campus facilities.Powerful cause and effect programming allows solutions with the added benefi t of full EN 54 compliance. This enables you to protect people and assets in a fully automated way and with a specifi c timing pattern – for example phased evacuation within shopping centers or the integra-tion of smoke and fi re damper controls within high-rise buildings.

In addition, Cerberus PRO offers an EN 54-approved, industrial LAN technology – also called backbone (C-WEB/LAN). Up to 14 clusters can be connected to a back-bone and up to 64 panels can be net-worked. Cerberus PRO can be optimally adapted to any building or process struc-ture, and campus-wide solutions can be easily realized. Over-voltage-immune fi ber-optic cables ensure highest possible system availability and make the back-bone a cost-effi cient solution. Moreover, one central access point is suffi cient to connect the entire system to a remote transmission to the fi re brigade, pager, and a danger management system.

Ensuring comprehensive safety with powerful panelsCerberus PRO fi re control panels combine high security standards with the latest technology. Competitive for simple applications, yet powerful enough for every appli-cation – they are the ideal choice whatever the size and complexity of your project.

■ Operating control panels intuitively for greater comfort

Emergency situations are stressful situa-tions. However, quick and reliable action is essential to save people and assets. This is why Cerberus PRO control panels and fi re terminals are easy and intuitive to operate. They display the required information in a comprehensible way – centrally or locally on fl oor level. In the event of an alarm, customized interven-tion texts facilitate correct actions.

Remote operation via Ethernet allows control of your system from any loca tion, for example if you want to isolate a zone for maintenance work. You can also evaluate the system status remotely and initiate appropriate actions if necessary. All this can be done with a standard PC. And less on-site visits increase cost effi ciency.

■ Integrating Cerberus PRO into the danger management system from Siemens

All Cerberus PRO networkable control panels can be easily integrated into the danger management system from Siemens.

■ Relying on detection without deception

Demanding applications like data centers or industrial production facilities require exceptional detection technology. Cerberus PRO detectors with our unique ASAtechnology (ASA = advanced signal analysis) offer a very fast and highly reli-able detection response. Being immune to deceptive phenomena such as steam, dust or gas, they prevent unnecessary downtimes and costs caused by false alarms.

From sensitive to robust, you can choose from different preprogrammed parameter sets to meet the expected environmental condition of your application. Using special algorithms, the sensor converts the record-ed signals into mathematical components. These are then compared with the data of the preprogrammed parameter set and interpreted in real time. As a result, the selected parameter dynamically adapts itself to the present situation. This means that in case of a real fi re, the detector reacts more sensitively – and in case of deceptive phenomena, the detector is more robust.

■ Detecting carbon monoxide Cerberus PRO also provides a detector for all fi re criteria: smoke, heat, and carbon monoxide (CO). The additional CO sensor ensures earliest detection of all CO generating fi res. It can also detect CO independently from fi re thanks to its autonomous CO alarm channel. Moreover, the CO parameter sets, which comply to Life Safety norms, can be set separately from the ASA parameter sets.

■ Choosing from a broad portfolio Siemens has 160 years experience in fi re safety. All Cerberus PRO detectors are backed by the application know-how we have gained with projects around the world – and with more than 60 million detectors installed worldwide. The point detector range comprises detectors for standard as well as for demanding appli-cations.

Standard applications have a low risk of fi re as well as few deceptive phenomena. They thus present little risk to life and pro-perty. These applications include offi ces, conference rooms, corridors, and stair-wells.

Providing fast, reliable detection with patented technologyData centers, offi ce buildings or industrial production facilities – Cerberus PRO offers a detector for any application area. So you can answer all requirements from standard to demanding with confi dence.

■ Linear smoke detectorIn areas with limited access such as in high bay warehouses or atria point type detectors can prove impractical. Here, lin-ear smoke detectors are the ideal choice. Cerberus PRO linear smoke detectors work on a refl ection principle. This means that they only have to be connected at one end, saving cables and installation costs.

■ Flame detectionAreas containing highly fl ammable materials, such as engine test beds or fl ammable stores, are better covered with fl ame detectors. The Cerberus PRO fl ame detector range includes both single-channel IR for simple applications as well as 3-channel IR for areas with deceptive phenomena such as halogen lamps, bright sunlight or welding.

■ Ex detectorsCerberus PRO offers a complete range of detectors and other peripheral devices that can be used to protect areas subject to explosion hazards such as oil refi neries, fl our mills or battery rooms.

■ Aspirating smoke detectionThese detectors are ideal for areas that require very high sensitivity such as com-puter suites or for areas that have limited accessibility or a complex structure such as high bay automated storage facilities. With LaserFOCUS, Cerberus PRO offers an integrated solution.

■ SoundersLoop-powered sounders are available as wall-mounted devices in red or white. They all have an adjustable sound output of up to 99 dBA and 11 selectable tones. Any two tones can be selected to provide escalation from alert to evacuation.

■ Sounder beaconsThe FDS229 sounder beacons provide all the features of the loop-powered sound-ers mentioned above – plus an additional integrated fl ashing beacon. They are available in red and orange and are very light intense (max. 3.2 cd).

■ Sounder baseCerberus PRO detectors can be used with the DBS720 sounder base, providing a neat detector/sounder combination as a single unit. The sounder base has the same features as the wall sounders and a maximum sound output of 88 dBA.

■ Loop-powered fl oor repeater terminals and mimic displays

A unique feature of Cerberus PRO is the repeat panel indication via loop-powered fl oor repeater terminals. This enables you to add important information in a most cost-effi cient and secure way. Future additions can be incorporated by simply tapping off the nearest detec-tor, call point, sounder etc. The fl oor repeater terminals come in two models: The FT2011 gives a detailed overview of all alarms and messages. In addition, the FT2010 offers the same main operating functions as the control panel. A loop-powered mimic display allows mimic dia-grams to be added to the system as well.

■ Input/output modulesThe Cerberus PRO system allows connec-tion of the full range of Siemens modules including: single input module, single input and output module, four way input module, four way input/output module (incl. AC 230 V rated contacts) as well as a dual conventional zone or dual sounder circuit controller (requires DC 24 V supply).

Connecting smart peripherals to the detection loopA wide variety of peripheral devices rounds off our Cerberus PRO family. Whether for detection, evacuation control or display – all devices are connected on the C-NET.

Highlights

■ A wide portfolio of peripheral devices – all connected via C-NET

■ Loop-powered sounders – with 11 different tones

■ Connecting the clever way with C-NET

All fi re detectors and peripherals com-municate via and are powered by the C-NET, reducing wiring costs. Additionally, distributed intelligence enables the use of unshielded cables – substantially reducing cabling and costs. Cerberus PRO devices can also be easily integrated into existing installations thanks to the free topology wiring of the C-NET detector loop.

The maximum loop wiring length of 3.3 km with up to 126 peripherals helps reduce the number of loops, making system designs more compact and straightforward. In addition, you can split one loop into two separate loops with the loop extension card.

■ Increasing cost effi ciency through fast installation

Cerberus PRO fi re detectors stand for clever fi re protection. However, they offer more than that. Short installation time, less cabling, and minimal operating costs are also a big plus – making Cerberus PRO an attractive solution.

■ Enhancing security with intelligent safety features

Every Cerberus PRO fi re detector has an integrated short circuit isolator to easily spot open or short circuits. The C-NET increases safety even further because it is installed as a loop. In case a short circuit occurs, the defective part is detected and isolated. Alarms, however, will still be transmitted. Because if the line is interrupted at one point, information is redirected from the other end to the con-trol panels and fl oor repeater terminals. This also results in faster fault fi nding, thereby reducing repair costs.

Highlights

■ Less wiring needed – as all detectors and peripheral devices are connected via C-NET

■ Cost-effi cient solution – thanks to short installation time, minimal cabling, and minimal operating costs

■ Increased safety – because C-NET is installed as a loop and all peri-pher als are equipped with turbo isolators

Benefi ting from the many advantages of smart technologyCerberus PRO is a powerful system that provides advanced technology for increased fi re safety. Numerous features make it a cost-effi cient solution for your requirement.

Floor repeater terminals and displays are connected directly on the C-NET loop, saving cabling and installation costs. And FT2010 and FT2011 enhance safety because they remain functional even in case of an open or short circuit.

Increase safety with the sounder FDS221 for acoustic signaling, the alarm sounder beacon FDS229 for acoustic and optic signaling, and with the sounder base DBS720 that is integrated in the fi re detector.

Mimic display driver Input/output modules

Customer-specifi c fl oor plan displays are possible thanks to the C-NET-pow-ered mimic display driver FT2001-A1.

Input/output modules further in-crease safety and security. With the input modules FDCI221/FDCI222, you can monitor the status of doors, venti lation or sprinklers. The input/output modules FDCIO221/FDCIO222 enable decentralized control of fi re doors and plant. The ”transponder” FDCIO223 enables a monitored connection of conventional detector lines, alarm signaling devices, and devices in ex plosion-protected zones.

Backbone

The backbone is an innovative, EN 54-approved industrial LAN network that offers increased planning flexibility. It enables you to network up to 64 panels, optimally adapt Cerberus PRO to any building or process struc-ture, and realize campus-wide solutions. Two independent, EN 54-approved Ethernet switches are all you need to connect one cluster with up to 16 panels to a fi ber-optic backbone. Up to 14 clusters can be connected to a backbone. Since they are then seen as one network, one central access point is suffi cient to connect the remote transmission to the fi re brigade, pager, and a danger management system.

The Cerberus PRO network can be integrated into a danger management system from Siemens, needing only one Ethernet switch. Additional security equipment, such as a fi rewall, is needed to integrate a danger management system via a customer network.
